On January 8th, why didn t I celebrate Su Shi s birthday?

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-01-31

As a Su fan, I didn't say anything yesterday.

Neither wrote about reading Su Sentiment, nor did he write a birthday article.

Yesterday was January 8th, according to the conversion, on this day 987 years ago, Su Shi was born in Meishan, Sichuan.

Needless to say, many self-**** people have also published commemorative texts in several official media.

Qilu is "Su Dongpo Happy Birthday", author, **Quan.

A few minutes later, the article was featured by Jimu News**.

Soon, The Paper Wulian Financial Media released "Su Dongpo, Happy 987th Birthday!".In addition to the shorter quotations, the main body is also the above article.

Mr. Zhu's article uses poems to tell the life of Su Shi, and I believe that friends who like Po Xian have read similar content, so I will not repeat it, but only talk about an interesting place.

The article mentions:On the third year of Song Renzong's reign (December 19), sometime between 5 a.m. and 7 a.m. on January 8, 1037 in the Gregorian calendar, he landed in a rented house in Shayuxing Old Street, Meishan, Sichuan.

Hey, what does it mean to rent a house?

Is it the author's pinyin typing, which turned the ancestral house into a rental house?Later, they neglected to inspect and made mistakes

Or, he confirmed, Su Shi was born in a rental house?After all, from ancient times to the present, people like the story of Diaosi's counterattack. If the Su family was an ordinary family who rented a house, and there were three talents in one household, it would be very exciting.

With this question, I flipped through Mr. Kong Fanli's "Three Su Yearbooks", and on the day of Su Shi's birth, the text reads:

Su Xun's second son, Shisheng, Meishan County, Shayuxing.

It is noted below: according to the "Shi Pu". "Shi Pu" is said to be a private act of yarn. "Su Shi's Poetry Collection" volume 31 "Strange Magpie" has the sentence "The family has five acres of garden", or it is the basis of "Shi Pu".

But — but that's the point.

Mr. Kong went on to write:

"Su Shi's Anthology" volume 73 "Remembering the First Lady Doesn't Stay in Tibet": "The First Lady lives in the veil of the eyebrows. "It's different from what "Shi Pu" says.

Subsequently, Mr. Kong quoted Su Shi's other poems to prove that"'Longevity' is credible."

When I read this, I also looked up the meaning of the residence, and the sidenote was "renting".

It seems that what Mr. Quan said is true, the Su family, like many people now, also rents a house to live - however, although Mr. Kong thinks that the house is credible, it is also vague in the text. Wang Shuizhao's "Biography of Su Shi" attached to the brief next year's genealogy, said that he was born in Su's house - it seems that it is probably because of this that Su Shi has a house of his own, thinking about it, taking Huangzhou Xuetang to Huizhou Baihefeng, from Shahu to Changzhou to buy ......

So much, back to the title.

Why don't I recognize Su Shi's birthday on the solar calendar?

The reason is nothing more than that, as an ancient, of course, you can only follow the calendar of that time.

What's more, even now, the vast majority of us Chinese still celebrate birthdays based on the lunar calendar of the birth day.
